Rest, My Soul, In Comfort
Lyrics
Rest, my soul, in comfort,
Nevermore despair!
Thro' distress and darkness
Shines the light so fair.
Though thy tears full often
Take their silent course,
Follow thou thy longing
On to heaven's shores!
Follow thou thy longing
On to heaven's shores!
Dost thou seem forsaken
In thy lonely plight?
Does the Lord not beckon
Thee from yonder height?
Sound not words of kindness
At thy grave's dark walls?
See, the portal opens
When thy Saviour calls!
See, the portal opens
When thy Saviour calls!
Hold His likeness tender
Ever in thy breast!
Flee all idle splendor!
Jesus gives thee rest.
Let naught e'er persuade thee
From thy Lord to part,
Till the angels bear thee
To thy Father's heart!
Till the angels bear thee
To thy Father's heart!
Nevermore despair!
Thro' distress and darkness
Shines the light so fair.
Though thy tears full often
Take their silent course,
Follow thou thy longing
On to heaven's shores!
Follow thou thy longing
On to heaven's shores!
Dost thou seem forsaken
In thy lonely plight?
Does the Lord not beckon
Thee from yonder height?
Sound not words of kindness
At thy grave's dark walls?
See, the portal opens
When thy Saviour calls!
See, the portal opens
When thy Saviour calls!
Hold His likeness tender
Ever in thy breast!
Flee all idle splendor!
Jesus gives thee rest.
Let naught e'er persuade thee
From thy Lord to part,
Till the angels bear thee
To thy Father's heart!
Till the angels bear thee
To thy Father's heart!
